I sensed you

I was out exploring with Venus when I knocked and she opened the door. The night with her had been too short, and there I was—for the third time, the right time. She was just serving a few hungry tourists outside when she suddenly stopped and saw me approaching, at first unsure who that figure... Lees verder →

The Hat

That morning, I sat down at the table.

Stupid Cupid

So, there I sat again, delighted, with her on the terrace—though only for a moment, because Cupid’s arrows were dipped in poison.
